What's a really good tooth whitening system? I am not really concerned with price. I just want a tooth whitening system that really works! It can be either in office or at home. Let me know what you have tried and if it was worth it!!
--------------------
I use Listerine Whitening and I'm very happy with it. I also supplement it with a whitening toothpaste. I tried the Crest Whitestrips a while back and they made my teeth hurt horribly for several weeks after it was done. They did work though. I have no complaints about the Listerine Whitening though. You just rinse with it for 1 minute once a day before you brush and it works. Best Wishes!

Teeth Whitening Pens?... Your Opinion Please!?
Wanting to use one but wanted to ask the opinion from somebody who has already used one. thanks xx
--------------------
I found them a waste better is a teeth whitening toothpaste used alternately with your regular toothpaste. Arm and hammer is good.

Should I wear yellow t-shirts to match my yellow teeth? How about yellow socks?
Because I can't afford teeth whitening now.. I need to fill cavities first :`(
--------------------
get a job at UPS and you get free dental insurance after a year along with health insurance and vision and if you have kids that get yellow teeth the'll be covered too. and in the mean time you can where your yellow shirt and socks because they dont have a dress code.

What product that is under 30 $ will make my teeth super white?!?
my teeth are not yellow but not real white .. how can i make my teeth extreamlly white???? like thiss.... http://www.sadafuego.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/teeth_whitening.jpg
--------------------
I use Crest Advanced Seal and my teeth are almost like that white color. It is a bit over $30 ubt you can get coupons. And for every box that you buy there is a $7 or $10 off coupon inside for the next box. And brush your teeth after every meal and don't drink pop (if you have to use a straw and drink water afterwards to rinse the mouth of the extra pop so your teeth are not stainedI highly doubt though ).

Do home dental whitening treatments harm your teeth?
What are the ingredients to avoid/look for?
--------------------
I use Crest White Strips per reccomendation from my dentist.They work great!! They do take a little longer to get results than you could get from the Dentist but they are way cheaper!! If used to often they can make your teeth & gums sensitive.

what is the best thing to use to whiten teeth?
i want to know of something that whitens teeh fast my friend says tht brushing my teeth with salt before toothpaste is good.Is it? also what brand of toohpaste has worked for u?
--------------------
If I were you, I would not use salt as it might actually hurt your gums. I happen to be using Colgate Whitening product. I cant remember its name exactly but its packaging is silver in colour and happens to have something like extra flouride written on it (thats what brightens the teeth). I suppose you can find it easily at shops because its the only Colgate product with silver and shiny packaging. This really worked for me. My teeth were very much whiter after using this only once. Hope I'd helped =)

How to whiten super sensitive teeth?
I have really sensitive teeth. I tried Crest Advanced White Strips and after one use my teeth were incredibly sensitive and painful the next day. I also use the Sensodyne whitening toothpaste and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Does anyone have experience with store-bought or dentist office whitening that doesn't cause pain? I know there are tons of things out on the market and there has to be something that works without triggering sensitivity. Or at least a in-office procedure they can do to help. Note: i am NOT looking for home remedies!!
--------------------
Unfortunately, most all of the whitening systems can cause temporary sensitivity. The "micro-structure" of dental enamel are tiny "rods". The whitening solutions allow these rods to open so the peroxide solution can penetrate into the tooth enamel to extract "color", thus whiten the teeth. Unfortunately, these rods opening also allows for the saliva, which is acidic, to penetrate as well, causing the sensitivity. The best solution is the have your dentist prescribe fluoride to apply following the whitening. Fluoride is very effective at reducing sensitivity. Good Luck

what is the best way to whiten my teeth?
i get my braces off tuesday and my teeth look sort of dull and not bright after having my braces on for 3 years and i go back to school the following monday so i need something that works really fast and i would rather not use the strips so what are the best brands of whitening toothpaste or are there other products that whiten better than toothpaste? thanks! and happy new year :)

No one's teeth are naturally white. They are different shads of white so can never really get 100% white teeth. But there are products which can help you remove stains and give your teeth cleaner look. The best way is to go to a dentist and pay for a teeth whitening treatment. But that is generally reserved for people who have badly stained teeth or people who have had their braces recently removed. for an average person, there are several solutions available in the market. the most popular are whitening strips. they are popular because they are the easiest to apply. but they may not be the most effective. i tried out strips but they didn't work for me because they kept coming off. i resorted to using baking soda and bleach but it was too painful. the best solution i have come across are the teeth whitening tips. Its the closest thing to what the dentist use. its a powder you apply on your teeth using tips, which removes stains and such. i used it for a week with good results i saw the add on CNN. here's a link to the site http://www.teethwhiten.com/splash.php?ai

whats the best way and cheapest way to get my teeth whitened?

Here are some helpful guidelines for you: 1. Brush your teeth on a regular basis, use the dental floss. This way you will protect the teeth from cavities and plaque, and also such things as tartar. You will not only avoid these problems, but will make your teeth great-looking! 2. Keep away from fluoride, this substance will blemish your teeth color. Fluoride can be in water and in toothpaste, so pay attention to this fact when you choose the suitable product. 3. Keep away from smoking, and drink less tea or coffee. These are coloring drinks, your teeth will lose their whiteness when you drink much of them. 4. There is a number of products, which will cause stains on your teeth, some veggies and fruits also can produce such effect. Nobody urges you to stop eating them, just make sure to brush your teeth later. 5. Do you know about whitening effect of some fruits? This is a well-known thing, but if you are still not aware of it, take into consideration that orange peel can be good for this purpose. If you polish your teeth with this mash, you will see later the difference. It is also possible to make a paste of orange peel and leaves of sweet bay for brushing with this paste. Another good recipe consists of lemon juice and salt. 6. Baking soda is great natural teeth whitening means! Plenty of toothpastes made soda their ingredient because of its efficiency. We do not ask you to purchase paste of this kind. Make a combination of baking soda, salt and vinegar in addition to it and you receive an excellent means to overcome your cosmetic defect. Alta White teeth whitening powder worked for me within 6 days, i just use it sometimes now whenever i need to.

white teeth - How do people acquire white teeth? im losing hope?
I need help on the professional teeth whitening department. I've used white strips before but they're really gross for some reason. Any other professional teeth whitening methods that has worked for yourself?
--------------------
This will cost a bit of money but I would get the oral b vitality for free teeth whitening. If you brush with it 2-3 times a day your teeth will be pretty white. And if they are dull, I heard most stars use petroleum jelly. Others take an easier (some say a lot faster) solution with whitening kits. There's a lot of product trials out there you can sample and use to see which one works out better for you. Hope my free teeth whitening two cents can be useful.

Before going to bed use only baking soda to brush your teeth. In the morning you can brush just by your tooth paste.

Is Baking Soda and Bicarbonate of Soda safe for teeth?
I want to make my teeth whiter, and I already floss, brush and use mouthwash twice a day yet I still have yellowish teeth. I was just wondering if Bicarb of Soda and Bakind Soda was safe for teeth whitening?
--------------------
The answer to your question is yes. It is also used for indegestion for heartburn. For your teeth just mix it into a paste,and brush your teeth as you would with toothpaste. For indegestion, use one teaspooon with 6 to 8 onces of cold water and mix well. Basically, it's the same ingreniant as alka saltzer. Trust me it works both ways. I've used it.

What's the fastest, cheapest way to whiten teeth?
I'm 14 years old and going to my high school prom, and I would like to whiten my teeth for it. I don't have a lot of money at my disposal, because I have to buy makeup as well. Is there any CHEAP and fast way to whiten my teeth that works?
--------------------
The fastest / quickest way is a simple baking soda scrub... Basically, just put some baking soda on your tooth brush, and scrub for a couple minutes. Do not do this too much, however, because you will take off your teeth enamel. It would eventually come back, but it would take time... Next, the best option is to get 35% (or less) of peroxide. You can get it on ebay for about $10 with shipping. A brush on application type is best. Basically, you just wash your teeth, prepare with baking soda, dry them, and apply for about 15 minutes. In about a week, you will notice a huge difference, and the results will be allot better than anything that those Chest strips can do. Good Luck and I Hope this helps... Please be safe because you only have one set of teeth.. :)

how old do you have to be for professional teeth whitening?
preferably bleaching..(:
--------------------
At least 18. Otherwise, the request has to come from your parents, though it is doubtful that the dentist will do it.

Is whitening bad for your teeth?
Does it makes them weaker by removing the top layer? Is it bad to put bleaching chemicals in your mouth where you can swallow them? It says "try not to get on lips or gums" - well i think this is impossible!
--------------------
Depends on if the system has been recommended and instructed by a professional dentist or have bought the system yourself without any professional support and advice. If whitening is done by a dental professional like a dentist or dental hygeinist, it will NOT do any damge to your gum or your teeth. And you should NOT repeat it more than once every 2 years. The only side effect with whitening is sensitive teeth that will be temporary and very rare cases long term. So whitening done by a dental professional is safe!

Very yellow teeth, need household whitening kit.?
I have really yellow teeth, because i used to go days with out brushing. I now brush my teeth 2 times a day, but i cant get them even near white. I have a budget of at most $60, and the product has to be available in a common store. please help!
--------------------
I was just at my dentist for a cleaning and asked about whitening. He said the over the counter whiteners will whiten slightly but you have to use them over and over again to get ok/good/average results! Save your money and go to the dentist. He will make a mold of your teeth and you put the whitener in the mold and put on your teeth for about 1/2 hour a day (you do it at home). It's $299 where my dentist is.

Cavity filling and dental teeth cleaning before or after Crest Whitening Strips?
I dont know what I should do first.
--------------------
The cleaning should be done first. This will remove the plaque and stain and the strips will work better. Then see how white you can get them with the strips. Then do the fillings. You can then match the color to your hopefully whiter teeth. Remember that you cannot make the filling material lighter with bleaching or strips. So if you place the fillings and the lighten the teeth, the fillings will be darker and stand out.
